TIMES WERE ROUGH
WHEN TIMES WERE LEAN
MOST THE TIME
NOBODY SEEMED
TO CARE
NO MORE PEACE
THAN A SOUTHERN
BREEZE
WHISTLIN' THROUGH
THE WILLOW TREES
AND I SEE YOU
STANDIN' THERE
AND I REACH OUT
TO TOUCH YOUR FACE
BUT THE COLD HARD
FACTS OF LIFE
PUT ME IN MY PLACE
SOUTHERN RAIN
FALLIN' DOWN ON ME
THINKIN' BACK
TO YESTERDAY
AND THE WAY THINGS
USED TO BE
SWEET HOME
ON THE RADIO
WHY DO THINGS HAVE
TO CHANGE
OH LORD
WHAT I WOULD
NOT GIVE
TO FEEL THAT
SOUTHERN RAIN
WATERMELON GROWING
ON THE VINE
THE SWEET TASTE OF
HOMEMADE WINE
AND THE SOFT TOUCH
OF YOUR FINGER TIPS
LAYING DOWN
BY THE RIVERSIDE
DO YOU RECALL
HOW WE USED TO HIDE
SO I COULD
TASTE YOUR LIPS
THOUGH THE WINDS
OF CHANGE TOOK ME
FROM HOME
SO MANY YEARS
JUST PASSED ME BY
AND NOW I'M ALL ALONE
SOUTHERN RAIN
FALLIN' DOWN ON ME
THINKIN' BACK TO
YESTERDAY
AND THE WAY THINGS
USED TO BE
SWEET HOME
ON THE RADIO
WHY DO THINGS
HAVE TO CHANGE
OH LORD
WHAT I WOULD NOT GIVE
TO FEEL THAT
SOUTHERN RAIN
YOU SAID THAT
WE COULD LAST
FOREVER
BUT I HAD
MY WILD OATS
YET TO SOW
THROUGH EVERY STORM
AND EACH ENDEAVOR
THE PAST AND THE LOVE
WE'VE FOUND
JUST WILL NOT
LET ME GO
SOUTHERN RAIN
FALLIN' DOWN ON ME
THINKIN' BACK TO
YESTERDAY
AND THE WAY THINGS
USED TO BE
SWEET HOME
ON THE RADIO
WHY DO THINGS
HAVE TO CHANGE
OH LORD
WHAT I WOULD NOT GIVE
TO FEEL THAT
SOUTHERN
SOUTHERN RAIN
OH TO FEEL THAT
SOUTHERN RAIN
OH TO FEEL THAT
SOUTHERN RAIN
